WE PROVIDE a very different and collaborative way of designing newspapers, brands or anything else. We keep you and your staff involved throughout the process and we give you lots of options and ideas. We work in teams and make you part of our team. That’s why our company name is Creative Circle and not just the name of our founder or lead designer. We design solutions that are practical and work with your staffing and equipment. We believe in content and keep the reader in the forefront of everything we do. We are journalists – many of our key people have reporting or copyediting backgrounds.

Our principal, Bill Ostendorf, who has done everything at newspapers from taking pictures to writing page one stories and dreaming up new product ideas, plays a hands-on role in every project.

Creative Circle and Roxen have integrated their platforms to supply a feature-rich, innovative and cost-effective editorial publishing system for print and digital operations. "We've seen every system out there and advised many media companies on technology vendors," said Ostendorf. "The problem is that mainframe, all-in-one platforms are too expensive and have cookie-cutter, poorly-designed websites. Meanwhile, web vendors who try to create print 'production systems' don't provide anything with the sophistication and ease of use of Roxen's solution." more
